| 表面の説明 | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Francis II (Franz II) facing right, framed within an open wreath of olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, the mint mark 'B' appearing below the bust at the wreath junction. The surrounding legend reads FRANC·II·D·G·R·I·S·A·GERM·HV·BO·REX·E, abbreviated titles proclaiming him by the Grace of God Emperor of the Romans, King of Germany, Hungary, and Bohemia. The portrait is rendered in a classical late-18th-century style with fine detail in the hair and drapery. |

Franz II ascended to the throne of the Holy Roman Empire in July 1792 — the same month France declared war on Austria, triggering two decades of near-continuous conflict that would drain imperial finances and eventually force repeated debasements of the silver coinage. This issue, struck across multiple Austrian mints during that opening stretch of the Revolutionary Wars, represents the last generation of Habsburg coinage before the financial pressures of the Napoleonic campaigns made such silver fineness increasingly difficult to sustain.
The .583 fineness itself was already a concession — earlier Maria Theresa-era 20 Kreuzer pieces had run finer. By 1804, Franz had dissolved the Holy Roman Empire entirely and reconstituted himself as Emperor of Austria.
